    You forget the picture of W playing kissy face with the Saudi prince already?

    The US government has been at the beck and call of the Saudis for quite a while.

    I think in 2012 pointing out they don't support building in a 64bit environment is a fair complaint.

    The amount of differences should of course be kept as little as possible. I am not saying it is worth it every time. just that it can be and is an additional source of value that is often overlooked. Mostly because other than Valve no games company continues to provide updates after the game has been out for a few months. This means they are fine with shitty hackish solutions and barely working software with no eye for correctness. Bethesda I am looking at you.

    You are forgetting the value that having an OSX and Linux port adds to your codebase. It finds edge cases, it finds places where you did icky stuff, it can and will improve your performance/correctness on even the main platform.

    They should not have the right to examine your bodily fluids anymore than to strip search you.

    Read my posts, I am not taking drugs, I am however aware that those same fluids tell a lot more about a person than just if they use illegal drugs or not.

    I doubt anyone would call 10 rounds high capacity.

    I was not aware of those, don't most of the firearms that shoot that use removable magazines?

    Has anyone ever actually made a high capacity clip?

    I am well aware of high capacity magazine, but I have never seen stripper clips more than 5 rounds, and moon clips are for revolvers.

    So instead they can use that information to not hire you because they can tell you are diabetic, or have some other medical condition or smoke or drink or do other legal but detectable things.

    Drug testing is far more intrusive than asking for a Facebook password. I think both should not be legal, until after something has happened and should be done by a court not your employer.

    You still have no right to know what he does on his off time.

    I do not use drugs, but I will not take such a test. It would let you know way too much about me and my medical state. I will not let you search my house either, which I guess would be another way to see if someone breaks the law.

    Why not let the non XX or XY folks compete in one or the other category?

    This is not PC bullshit this is basic biology. These people are already genetic freaks for being able to what they do, why exclude those that also have other genetic anomalies?

    Then why did nature create them?

    Nature does not tell you anything, you are a fucking edge case that probably should not exist. What with your upright walking.

    If it exists it exists, there is no room for should when it comes to biology.
